GENETIC PREDICTION OF LEAF RUST RESISTANCE THROUGH CROSSING BETWEEN TWO Lr,s AND FIVE EGYPTIAN WHEAT VARIETIES. [PDF]
Leaf rust caused by Puccinia triticina Eriks.is a common and widespread disease of wheat in Egypt and worldwide. Durable genetic resistance to leaf rust in wheat has been difficult to achieve, since the virulence of leaf rust pathogen to specific ...

Nuclear exchange generates population diversity in the wheat leaf rust pathogen Puccinia triticina [PDF]
In clonally reproducing dikaryotic rust fungi, non-sexual processes such as somatic nuclear exchange are postulated to play a role in diversity but have been difficult to detect due to the lack of genome resolution between the two haploid nuclei.

Identification of QTL conferring resistance to stripe rust (Puccinia striiformis f. sp. hordei) and leaf rust (Puccinia hordei) in barley using nested association mapping (NAM). [PDF]
The biotrophic rust fungi Puccinia hordei and Puccinia striiformis are important barley pathogens with the potential to cause high yield losses through an epidemic spread.

Abnormal germling development by brown rust and powdery mildew on cer barley mutants [PDF]
The barley leaf rust fungus forms appressoria over host leaf stomata and penetrates via the stomatal pore. High levels of avoidance to leaf rust fungi have been described in some wild accessions of Hordeum species where a prominent wax layer on the ...

Marker-Assisted Improvement of Bread Wheat Variety HD2967 for Leaf and Stripe Rust Resistance
The mega wheat variety HD2967 was improved for leaf and stripe rust resistance by marker-assisted backcross breeding. After its release in 2011, HD2967 became susceptible to stripe rust and moderately susceptible to leaf rust.

Characterization of Lr46, a gene conferring partial resistance to wheat leaf rust [PDF]
Components of resistance conferred by the Lr46 gene, reported as causing "slow rusting" resistance to leaf rust in wheat, were studied and compared with the effects of Lr34 and genes for quantitative resistance in cv. Akabozu. Lr34 is a gene that confers

A pathogen-induced putative NAC transcription factor mediates leaf rust resistance in barley [PDF]
Leaf rust, caused by Puccinia hordei, is one of the most widespread and damaging foliar diseases affecting barley. The barley leaf rust resistance locus Rph7 has been shown to have unusually high sequence and haplotype divergence.
